Recognizing Trauma and Supporting Healing in the People You Love

The Santa Catalina Mental Health Ministry’s next Mental Health Focus will be on March 24 at 6 p.m. or March 30 at 3 p.m.

Join Jessica Brubaker, MS, LPC, NCC, the Director of Training at Transitions Counseling and Consulting, as she discusses posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), shedding light on what trauma really is, how it impacts the mind and body, and how PTSD manifests in daily life. Participants will learn about the causes and symptoms of PTSD, common misconceptions, and practical ways to support loved ones living with this condition. By fostering awareness and empathy, this session aims to empower individuals to create a more compassionate, trauma-informed community.

The presentation will be in the parish hall at 14380 N. Oracle Rd.  The same presentation will be given twice, so feel free to attend the one that fits your schedule.
